I generally stay away from shower gels because the water at my place is really heavy and salty and it would take a whole lot of effort to get rid of the slipperiness of the gels, so I generally use the lathery foamy soaps to do the job and Oriflame’s Grapes and Echinacea is a shower gel that I am using after a really long time.

Key Ingredients
Price: Rs. 298 for 200 mL.
Significance of Echinacea Angustifolia and Vitis Vinifera in Cosmetics
Echinacea has been used by Native Americans to trigger the body’s natural ability to heal itself. It is effective in boosting the body’s immunity against viral, fungal and bacterial infections.
My Take on Oriflame Naturals Shower Gel With Antioxidant Grapes And Echinacea
This 200 mL transparent bottle contains thick viscous fluid which strongly smells of
grape juice and some other tangy substance. It has a flip-flop cap, which is very travel friendly, though I have not traveled with it, but I think so. It is not exactly the kind of smell that I would like on me right after bathing. It lathers up okay and not so much, but it does not leave any slipperiness either which is so common if you salty water at your place. There is no dryness or stretching after taking a shower with it and many times I felt the urge to skip body lotion. Quantity wise, only a small amount of gel is required and this 200 mL of gel will last you close to 2 months.
About the antioxidant thing, I am not quite sure what antioxidant effects you are supposed to watch out for, though upon researching on the net, I found that grapes and Echinacea do have antioxidant and conditioning properties.
Except for the strong scent, I am quite satisfied with this shower gel.
PROs of Oriflame Naturals Shower Gel With Antioxidant Grapes And Echinacea:
- Highly conditioning shower gel.
- Does not leave behind any slipperiness on the skin.
- Does not cause dryness of the skin after a shower as is seen with beauty soaps.
CONs of Oriflame Naturals Shower Gel With Antioxidant Grapes And Echinacea:
- Strong tangy scent which is not exactly appealing.
Will I Purchase it Again: I would want to try the other shower gels from the catalogue, but not this for a while.
IMBB Star Rating: 3/5…..and -2 entirely for the “non-appealing” scent.

hi jomol
a frank review. thank you.
in fact I have used grape face wash from oriflame. it used to be so good for oily skin. but i wonder how come grapes body wash be so moisturizing?
by the way i read you post on arohan’s prank. he is a cute pie.
even my son is also little younger to your son. but ten months old. the pottie episode was truly hilarious.
but then these are all one part of episodes of joys of motherhood.
enjoy your motherhood dear.
my hugs to arohan
nahin….bechare ansh ki wajah se nahin…..aise hi tum gareeb logon se bahut badboo aati hai…..gate ke bahar kade rahke baat karo O:) O:) O:) O:)

I have tried many body washed and soaps. Finally I have started using a soap called Zyndet (available with chemists) prescribed by dermatologists. Such a wonderful product and my skin is a lot better :waytogo:
the bubbly picture is so nice Jomol! the others are not opening!:( I dont like the grape juice smell either. Definitely a miss!
jomol !! oriflame !!
the color really remind me of grape juice! first the sensoria cream with the masculine smell…now this with the non appealing scent…oriflame products are not that satisfactory when it comes to scent :sidefrown:
*reminds* sorry..typo :$
